Default gas truck noobie

Hi, i recently bought a TG mta4 but i am having problems getting the engine to run properly, i can get it to start up and move, but when ever i use full throttle or the breaks the engine cuts out.

What should be done to rectify this.

Thanks

sounds like the carb is closing to much, make sure it is a least the thickness of a penny or if you want to be exact 2mm

Also, make sure you are not running it too lean, that could cause it to stall out when you apply full throttle

I think it is too rich on the high end. Lean out the high end needle, and then try it.
